SV Darmstadt 98 lost 1-2 at Fortuna Düsseldorf on Friday evening and suffered a setback in the promotion race. At the same time, the lilies made it possible for the first match ball due to their defeat Schalke on matchday 33. In Düsseldorf, the SVD completely slept the initial phase, Iyoha (3rd) and Zimmermann (10th) met for the early leadership for the Fortunes. The lilies were even lucky that the aluminum prevented a possible 0: 3 from a claw. After the restart, Darmstadt took command, Kempe scored the connection goal from the point (60th). The guests now vehemently pressed the equalization, but this should no longer fall. Rather, both teams lost one man in a hectic final phase: Düsseldorf's Ginczeks saw red, Darmstadt's Gjasula yellow-red (88th each).

Paderborn wins the last home game of the season

SC Paderborn won 2-0 against SV Sandhausen in the parallel game and thus celebrated a threesome in the last home game of the season. The SCP took the lead through a wonderful distance from Muslija (27th), Klement, who had already prepared the leadership goal, followed the 2-0 in the 60th minute. Then nothing happened. At Sandhausen, the series of eight games abroad tore without defeat in the last away game.

at the HSV is billed at the end

On Saturday, two games are particularly in the middle: on the afternoon (1.30 p.m.) , Hamburger SV welcomes to the north duel Hannover 96. The red pants were almost out of the promotion race, but have reported back by a series of three victories in a row And there are therefore again in striking distance. The HSV no longer has the direct climb in its own hands. The remaining program - after the home game against Hanover, the HSV travels to Rostock on the last match day - and the best goal difference of all candidates could ultimately speak for the HSV. "Calculated at the end," said striker Robert Glatzel (23 season goal) on the HSV website a declaration of war to the direct competitors.

Regardless of the final placement, Jonas Boldt pleads for a continuation of the path taken with coach Tim Walter, who in the meantime got criticized: "If you stay in the constellation, something can really grow here. This is something that the HSV in the last Was missing for 20 years, "said the sports director. Something is also to be created in Hanover, the still powerful club boss Martin Kind is aiming for the return to the Bundesliga for the coming years. However, not with the current coach Christoph Dabrowski, whose contract is not extended at the end of the season. Rather, the current Fürther Coach Stefan Leitl is transferred to the Returning Mission, only the official confirmation is still pending.

In the two other afternoon parts, it is literally about the "golden pineapple. Jahn Regensburg and 1. FC Heidenheim have a year of further class membership as well as Hansa Rostock, which is a guest at the fixed relegation FC Ingolstadt.

cheers Schalke against Corona-plagued Kiez Schalke?

On the Saturday evening (8.30 p.m.) there will be a clerk between Schalke 04 and FC St. Pauli. Schalke is the only team that could celebrate early promotion on the 33rd matchday: After Darmstadt in Düsseldorf pulled the shorter one, the miners would be back in the Bundesliga with a win. The hopes of the royal blue are particularly on Simon Terodde's shoulders. The best goal scorer in the lower house with 28 goals shot the Schalke with his last-minute goal last weekend in the 2-1 win at SV Sandhausen back to first place and thus into the comfortable starting situation. FC St. Pauli, even more than a good situation after the back series, played completely playful in 2022, and three points were made from seven points ahead of third place. To make matters worse, the Kiez Schalkes were haunted by a Corona outbreak last weekend, and ten professionals are in isolation. The FCSP does not fall into self -pity, but wants to compete at Schalke: "We do everything we can to get a competitive group together," said sports director Andreas Bornemann. However, it is also clear that those responsible for the players will not take any health risks, which is why there is a big question mark behind the line -up for Saturday evening.

in Nuremberg there is realism - Werder relies on "something crazy"

On Sunday (1.30 p.m.) , the last two promotion candidates intervene with 1. FC Nürnberg and Werder Bremen. For the club, hopes of six points behind are only theoretical nature of six points behind in second and third place as well as the significantly worse goal difference compared to the competition. "To land at the top, we still lack a bit under normal circumstances," said sports director Dieter Hecking a realistic assessment before the last two match days. And so Hecking, together with sports director Olaf Rebbe, is already planning the squad for another attack towards Oberhaus: Tom Krauss could not be kept, but Linus Tempelmann remains another year. In particular, the focus is on the reinforcement of the attack, only 48 goals scored are among the top six of the table by far the low value. Kiel, on the other hand, has stabilized himself after a restless back series and the departure of coach Ole Werner under his successor Marcel Rapp and has long since been in his pocket after just one defeat from the last six league portraits (2 victories/ 3 draw). Holstein uses the quiet fairway and enables Denys Miroshnichenko, who fled from Ukraine, to keep up with KSV in training.

Behind Werder Bremen is a wave valley of feelings. After the 4-1 win on Schalke, the Hanseatic trees were almost celebrated as a promoted man, after which 2: 3 near Holstein Kiel was suddenly in the valley of tears. "The truth lies in the middle," emphasized Coach Werner, and gave himself deliberately unimpressed by the whole up and down in front of the duel with relegated Erzgebirge Aue. Even with two wins, the direct climb no longer rely on the competitors. Werner also puts on this: "As a rule, something crazy happens." First of all, it is important for the SVW to do its own tasks and drive six points. Because Werner wants to emerge "from this exciting promotion struggle as one of the winners".

Confidence for the relegation relegation: Dresden finally succeeded in winning 2022?

The game between the Karlsruher SC and Dynamo Dresden is very tabular. However, the KSC could still work a few places upwards and thus improve its position for the distribution of TV money. Not insignificant, the Badeners have to look for a replacement for Philipp Hofmann from summer. The attacker, who has scored 48 goals for the KSC in 94 league porties since 2019 and thus snapped purely mathematically in every second game, is drawn to Bundesliga club VfL Bochum. Dresden is already a participant in the relegation relegation. For the Saxons, it is particularly important to refuel with a victory for the extension in the fight against relegation. Because a threesome has not yet succeeded in the dynamos in 2022.
